The Call of Choulou - Part 2
Published 5th of March, 2022
The Chapel Of The Holy Cross
And here we are outside the little chapel. It would be rude not to go in.
Church Interior
I don't know if this is a work in progress or what? It didn't seem like it was in active use.
Choulou View
I am at the top of the hill though, so may as well finish with some panoramic shots of the area. This photo shows Choulou in all its glory. It is a lot bigger than you might think.
Lemona View
This is the nearby village of Lemona.
The Road To Letymbou
You can see all the almond blossom in this shot. Once I get back to the car I shall be headed in that direction, through Letymbou and back to our home in Polemi. I hope you have enjoyed our look at Choulou. We will be visiting more villages in the future, as they are all full of charm. Paphos has so much more to offer than some beaches and an Archaeological Park.

Choulou can be found on the central slopes of the Ezousa Valley, just up from Letymbou, and before you reach the lofty heights of Statos Agios Fotios and Panagia. It has a lot of history to it, and is well worth a visit. In this two-part series we take in some of the attractions.
Agios Georgios, Choulou
As you approach Choulou from Letymbou and the Ezousa Valley, you will pass a brown sign on your left indicating that the Church of Agios Georgios is down the next turn. If you have quarter of an hour to spare, drive down the road, at least until you get to the little church, and have a look,
Agios Theodoros Church
I've been meaning to do some more articles on the villages of Paphos. One such, Choulou, has a number of features that deserve their own blogs. Step forward Agios Theodoros Church, a nice ruin dating back to the 8th century AD.
Exploring Paphos In The Rain - Part 2
In the second half of my recent excursion into the wet Paphos countryside, I go valley hopping through Xeros and Ezousa, become re-acquainted with an abandoned village, and end up scrabbling through mud at a waterfall I hadn't seen before, tucked away behind the church in Choulou.Related Pages

eBookCyprus Road Trip 01: the Kathikas - Panagia Loop
Let me take you on a journey around the region of Paphos, Cyprus. Starting at Paphos itself, we travel to Akoursos, then Kathikas, Kritou Terra and Simou. We continue past Lasa and Kannaviou, before taking in the delights of Panagia. Getting a bit more adventurous, we visit the abandoned villages of Statos and Agios Fotios, before passing through Choulou, Letymbou and Polemi, and rejoining the main Paphos - Polis road.
